About this course

Are you a scribbler, a secret diarist, or a would-be journalist? Do you write professionally or as a hobby? Find your unique writing voice with the British Council’s Introduction to Creative Writing course.

This course offers opportunities to learn a variety of techniques to improve your writing process and gain new insights about yourself as a writer.

The content not only covers fiction, short stories, poetry and dialogue, but also, writing feature articles, screenplays, news reports, travel writing etc. The syllabus is specially designed for those who wish to write better and more creatively but lack appropriate guidance.

Our experienced teachers, thought provoking materials and interactive sessions with state-of-the-art facilities are exactly what you need to begin your journey as a writer. The course, however, is not aimed at those wishing to improve their academic or technical writing.
